I live for the CABE
I found this 1935 or 36 American Flyer for the wife! I quickly mocked it up to show her how it will look and thought I’d shoot a few pics as well.
The bike has the fender spacers and collet seat post so it seems to be a '36 transition bike. The wire skirt guard is intact and it even has the original Speed and Ease decal! Original seat too! The dark spot on the seat is dog snot lol! Everything looks complete and original. I'll service it, clean it up a bit and get it on the road. There is some silver spray paint from many years ago on the wheels, handlebars and stem that will need to be worked off and I think I’ll do a light cleaning to the rest of the bike and see how it looks. No OA bath on this one. I like it the way it is although I may get it a bit closer to the red color. I’m pretty excited about this bike as well as is my wife! What ya think?
